Summary

A "quick poll'' of 150 people from a car-buying website showed most owners were only somewhat successful or unable to hook up their iPods. The site now features a step-by-step instructional video.

Details

  • Owners of Apple Computer iPods have trouble using their trendy music players in their cars, according to an unscientific survey released last week.
  • The ``quick poll'' of 150 people, done earlier this month by the www.autobytel.com car-buying Web site, showed that only 33 percent of iPod users ``very successfully'' hooked up their players to their rides.
  • Users of its Web site will now find a video with step-by-step iPod installation instructions as well as a list of 10 cars under $25,000 that are iPod-compatible or can be made so with minor equipment upgrades.
  • OVERSEAS SURVEY: A survey of executives at small to mid-size electronics-related businesses found that many thought expanding abroad was increasingly important to develop overseas customers more than to cut costs.
  • The survey was done by KWR International, a research firm, for CMP Media, which publishes EE Times.
  • The survey is published in today's issue of the magazine.
  • The latest example of a company making the move is VideoEgg, a small start-up out of New Haven, Conn.
  • Founder Kevin Sladek was in the Bay Area last week to do business and hunt for office space.
  • ``It's become clear that the tech mecca that is New Haven doesn't have the supportive environment we need as we staff up,'' Sladek said, tongue in cheek, after his plane landed in San Jose.
  • Users of Six Apart's TypePad blogging service will be able to post video to their blogs using VideoEgg technology.
  • ``This is our first deal with a marquee partner,'' Sladek said.
  • CARDINAL ALLIANCE: Stanford University has announced an agreement with Apple Computer to produce free podcasts of lectures, student music, play-by-play of its football games and more.
  • There's already a ton of content in the iTunes store, including lectures from the Technology Ventures Program.
